Mark your calendars for Friday 12th November, as Tom Harrington takes the stage at Sorrento at 12pm for an unmissable performance with free entry! After clinching victory in the prestigious ‘Battle of the Buskers’ at the renowned ‘Buskers by the Lake’ festival, Tom has secured his place in the Airlie Beach Festival of Music line-up - an honour that reflects his exceptional talent and promise as a rising star in the Australian music scene.
Originally hailing from rural Victoria and now calling the Sunshine Coast home, Tom is quickly carving out a niche for himself with his innovative vocal looping performance, setting him apart from conventional indie-folk artists. With Airlie Beach being the third stop on his Australian tour, "When Time Is On Our Side," Tom’s packing up his bus and hitting the road, ready to share his unique sound and heartfelt storytelling.
“I can't wait to hit the stage in Airlie Beach - the combination of performing and escaping in paradise is the perfect recipe for inspiration,” said Tom.
“I genuinely appreciate the opportunity that’s come from my competition win - it’s fantastic to see emerging artists like myself getting the chance to shine on such a prominent platform.”
Joining Tom in the three day lineup at Sorrento is Dan Hannaford, whose dynamic blend of country and rock influences is sure to captivate. Also featured are Innocent Eve, Jackson Dunn and Andrew Cousins, all of whom have graced the stage at ‘Buskers by the Lake’ festival in previous years. This strong connection between both festivals reflects a shared commitment to supporting emerging talent and creating extraordinary opportunities.
Let’s roll out the welcome mat and show these visiting artists what true Airlie Beach hospitality looks like as they bring their magic to the stage at Sorrento!
